SOLUTION: EXECUTIVE ADVISORY

Fractional AI CTO.
Strategy without the salary.

You need senior AI leadership but not full-time. Someone who can talk to your board, vet vendors, and guide strategy. Someone who has built and shipped, not just advised. That is what fractional means here.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Companies that need guidance, not just builds.

You have engineers. What you lack is someone who can connect AI possibilities to business outcomes and guide the organization through transformation.

Private Equity Portfolio Companies

Need to accelerate AI adoption across the portfolio. Want consistent frameworks without hiring full-time AI leadership at each company.

Growth-Stage Companies

Too big to ignore AI, too small to hire a VP of AI. Need senior guidance without the $400K salary.

Traditional Industries Going Digital

Manufacturing, logistics, healthcare. Need someone who speaks both AI and operations.

WHAT WE DELIVER

Strategic leadership, not just advice.

We do not write reports that gather dust. We work alongside your leadership team to make decisions, evaluate options, and drive execution.

Board-Ready AI Strategy

A clear roadmap your board can understand and fund. Use cases prioritized by ROI, timeline, and risk. No buzzwords.

Vendor Vetting

Evaluate AI vendors objectively. Cut through marketing claims, assess real capability, negotiate from knowledge.

Technology Roadmap

What to build, what to buy, what to ignore. Sequenced investments that build on each other.

Governance Framework

Policies for AI use, data handling, and risk management. Compliance-ready documentation.

Build vs. Buy Analysis

Honest assessment of when to build custom vs. when off-the-shelf works. Most companies get this wrong.

M&A Due Diligence

AI capability assessment for acquisitions. Separate real tech from demo-ware before you buy.

HOW IT WORKS

Three phases to AI leadership.

01

Strategic Assessment

Two-week deep dive into your business, current capabilities, and opportunities. We interview stakeholders, audit systems, and map the landscape.

02

Roadmap Development

Prioritized AI initiatives with clear business cases. Each opportunity sized by investment, timeline, ROI, and risk.

03

Ongoing Advisory

Regular strategic sessions, vendor evaluations, and implementation oversight. You get a CTO-level partner without the full-time cost.

"We were about to spend $2M on an AI platform that would have been completely wrong for us. One conversation saved that mistake and pointed us to a solution that cost a fraction and actually worked."
